Getting Started
Read up on the wiki to get started using this easy plugin!
Auto-Updating
This plugin utilises an AutoUpdater to notify you when new updates are available. This plugin makes no attempt to automatically install the update for you, but simply notifies all players with PlayerLauncher.admin about future updates. You can disable this by setting 'Launch.Update-Notifications' to false in the config.yml
Metrics
PlayerLauncher makes use of Hidendras plugin metrics system, which means the following information is sent to mcstats.org:
- A unique identifier
- The Java version your server is running
- Whether your server is running online or offline mode.
- The version of the plugin you are using.
- Your server version
- OS version/name along with it's architecture
- CPU Core count
- Number of players online
- Metrics version
Opting out of this service can be done by editing plugins/Plugin Metrics/config.yml and changing opt-out to true.

If you really liked the plugin, consider sparing a few dollars towards my cause. I've spent a long period of time developing this one-of-a-kind plugin and it would mean so much if you could show your support.
@AoHRuthless
I would suggest that you make it configurable the messages I mean. So those who want them can config them on and the other way around. Anyways awesome plugin!
@BlackFalcon7842
Yeah, I noticed that it would spam 'Launching' and that stuff a lot. I was considering removing the messages. That is a nice idea that with a permission you can create a launch pad. I will look into it. So far you need the PlayerLauncher.launch.pressureplate to launch off a wooden pressure plate, but I can mess with it.
you should make it so only ops can make launch pads and add way to edit how far it launches you. The messages are really spammy you should just get rid of them

I'm pretty sure that isn't a good idea: Because onCommand method is run on the "main server thread", I think using thread.sleep would freeze the ENTIRE server. At least, that's what I believe, I could be wrong.
When I get around to it, I'm going to use a Runnable. Which should be in the next update.
help with delay on launches-
if(command.getName().equalsIgnoreCase("launch")){ try{ Thread.sleep(launchDelayTime); launch delay time in milliseconds }catch(InterruptedException e){} ... launch code }
@mafima
I will consider adding a configurable option where you can customize the launch message, with the '&' color codes.
Thank you for the good suggestion.
@Thuyser
You probably could, but it might be more helpful to add this option without having to program a Command Block, I think that's what he is getting at.
Frankly, I'm not the best with Command Blocks anyways.
looks good. can you add messages when launching? like "WOOOSH!"
Cant you use a command block?
@GameplayerHD
That's not a bad idea, I will look into implementing that.
Suggestion, make it work with a pressureplate? Thanks :)
